In a bag of keys, there are 12 silver keys, 5 black keys, 11 copper keys, and 2 painted keys of various colors. One key is drawn out at random. What is the probability that the key that is drawn is silver or copper?

The total number of keys equals:
12 + 5 + 11 + 2 = 30 keys

The probability to pick a sliver key is:
12/30 = 2/5

The probability to pick a copper key is:
11/30

Hope that helps
